    Describe their defensive techniques

    1:Toney
    2:McCallum
    3:Hopkins
    4:Calzaghe
    5: Eubank

    1: Toney:
    Stance:Fights out of the classical stance(left hand held low, right hand held high)
    Technique:Uses the shoulder roll to slip right hands, blocks left hooks with his right hand.
    Against southpaws (at cw) he constantly dipped at the waist in an attempt to neutralize the straight left from the southpaw stance
    Weakness: Leaping left hook, slick movers(Nunn, Johnson)

          Calzaghes weakness was his susceptibility to the right hand,like a lot of southpaws,especially the straight right

            He tended to get caught with it early in fights, later in the fight he would be able to slip it, more consistently

              Jones, Taylor and Calzaghe all had those attributes

                Ye he often took a few rounds to get going and was caught early alot,kessler,hopkins and jones landed a lot of right hands (more so the first two)

                  The Kessler fight is one of my fav Calzaghe fights, by 5 Kessler couldnt land either the right uppercut or right cross.

                  He also did much better against Hopkins than Tarver did, Tarver was caught consistently with the right hand lead through out his fight with Hopkins

                    Kessler landed some savage right uppercuts in the first 4 rounds,it was a really enjoyable fight

                    Hopkins couldnt miss the right hand against tarver that night,was a good display from him
